A. you need to hold the baby in proper position only then baby will latch properly. just think once can you suck from side of your mouth, so the same applies for the baby the nipples need to be in centre of the mouth while feeding

A. Moving to a quiet, calm place. Holding your baby skin to skin. While both you and your baby are undressed, hold your baby against your chest. Letting your baby lead. Support your baby's neck, shoulders, and hips with your hands.
